a friend of mine knows the owner of Rize and says he can get me some traction bars for $450. he says the owner has a bunch of stuff layin around his house.

anyway, how do you guys think it would look on a titan ? i'm used to seeing rize on fords but i thought it might look interesting. maybe powder coat them black to match the under carriage or leave them silver.

let me know what you guys think i should do.....

those are nice but from what i see....dont get me wrong.. but they look like 3/16-1/4 A36 or AL plate that was folded and welded if that is all it is then thats like 150 in materials and maybe 100 in labor so 450 is steep. I have worked in a fab shop for about 5 years doing all the autocad and CNC plasma programing..
